Lynn:

Pippin, did you remember the word antecedent
without the old grammar book?  Someone else used
the word too and I was saying to myself, "I know
that word, I know that word, what does it mean
again?".  LOL

(who has spent the last 4 years spliting
infinitives she was always taught not to split so
has decided it's no wonder she's now thoroughly
confused by grammar in any language)
